The ox-cart driver yoked up his animals and made a place for Don Quijote on a bundle of hay, and then they plodded slowly along as usual, in the direction the priest pointed out, until after six days they arrived at Don Quote's village, which they reached just at midday, and as it happened on a Sunday, so that everyone was out in the middle of it. All the people came over to see who was in the cart, and were astonished to see their neighbor; a small boy ran to tell the knight's niece and his housekeeper that their uncle and master was coming home, weak and pale, stretched out on a pile of hay and traveling in an ox cart. It was pitiful, hearing the two good ladies' screaming and crying, and seeing how they slapped their own faces and, once they'd seen Don Quijote coming through the gate, they hurled new curses at all wicked books of chivalry.
The ox cart owner made a spot for Don Quijote and they left falling the priest orders, after six days they came in to town on Sunday, when all the people were in the village square.Then a small boy ran to tell the knights niece. When the niece saw him she screamed curses at books of chivalry.
